How drums lessons work.

Drum lessons at George's are one-on-one, 30 minutes a week, in a private lesson room on the lower level. Students learn time, rudiments and reading, then put them to work on real songs.

The drum floor upstairs has kits, cymbals, sticks and heads. And the lessons stick: one parent wrote that their son has been taking lessons at George's for over five years.

Teacher: Eric Hellberg.
